Eraring is a suburb of the City of Lake Macquarie in New South Wales, Australia, and is located on the western shore of Lake Macquarie and north of the town of Morisset.
Eraring was designated Newport in the hope that a port facility would be built there, but this never happened. Some farming was established. Dr. Leighton Jones, who was known as the Monkey Doctor because he conducted rejuvenation operations using monkey glands, moved into the area in the 1930s. A public school opened in 1924.
Construction began on Eraring Power Station in 1975. It was completed in 1984. Most of the workers live in the surrounding area rather than in Eraring itself.
